Hi there, I am hoping someone can help me.
On my home PC, bought from Tiny about 3 years ago, I have a few USB ports on the back (six I think) and another on the front (part of one of those mulit all-in-one card reader things) all of which are supposedly USB 2.0
I always get the 'high speed device plugged into non high speed port' message whenever I plug in my ipod or digital camera, which means any data transfer takes forever. Within that message you can click for a list of all available ports, where it tells me the machine has none.
Plus, when I do the check in Device Manager, none of the entries under Universal Serial Bus Controller have the word 'enhanced' against them (only things listed are USB Control Hub and a few 'Via REV 5 or later USB Controller') so it clearly thinks I don't have any USB 2.0 ports on my PC. Now I distinctly know that when I bought my PC, USB 2.0 was quite new, but I made sure my PC had them.....so I know they were 2.0, plus the one port on the front even has a USB 2.0 symbol next to it stating that it's a USB 2.0 device.
Have tried updating these drivers through device manager, with no joy - even with my system disc in the drive, sent to me with my PC.
Have separately tried installing from the CD by opening up the contents, then going into the USB folder, where there is 2 sub-directories - both that have text files associated with them saying all about USB 2.0. One installs but doesn't make any difference and the other wont install because it says a have a later version of Windows/drivers already installed so wont run.
So annoying having the supposed 2.0 capability, but not being able to install them or use them properly. Please can seomone help me by telling me where I am going wrong.
I am running Windows XP (with SP2 since installed via Wondows Updates).
Motherboard is apparently a Micro-Star International P4M266A (thats what it told me after I had run a utility called Fresh Diagnose downloaded from Web).
